More and more, we can get computers to do thi stanley cup ngs for us by talking to them. A computer can call your mother when you tell it to, find you a pizza place when you ask for one, or write out an email that you dictate. Sometimes the computer gets it wrong, but a lot of the time it gets it right, which is amazing when you think about what a computer has to do to turn human speech into written words: turn tiny changes in air pressure into language. Computer speech recognition is v stanley thermobecher ery complicated and has a long history of development, but here, condensed for you, are the seven basic things a computer has to do to understand speech. If you thought Siri had an easy gig, think again. Mental Floss breaks down just how hard it is for computers to understand what we say鈥攁nd to turn that into written words. 1. Turn the movement of air molecules into numbers. Sound comes into your ear or a microphone as changes in air pressure, a continuous sound wave. The computer records a meas stanley us urement of that wave at one point in time, stores it, and then measures it again. If it waits too long between measurements, it will miss important changes in the wave. To get a good approximation of a speech wave, it has to take a measurement at least 8000 times a second, but it works better if it takes one 44,100 times a second. This process is otherwise known as digitization at 8kHz or 44.1kHz. Wikimedia Commons 2. Figure out which parts of the sound wave are speech.

Thor: The Dark World heads to England most famous archaeological site. Prepare for a truly unfortunate Justice League rumor. Robocop is bringing in Beetlejuice himself to replace Hugh Laurie as a villainous CEO. Ryan Gosling and Christina Hendricks are making a modern fairy tale. And will Doctor Who go live for its 50th anniversary Spoilers from here on out! Top image from Fringe. Robocop After a fairly damning script review, reports of director Jose Padilha being stymied at every turn by MGM, and House actor Hugh Laurie dropping out as the villain, something amazing need to happen to restore my faith in this whole cockamamie concept, such as the addition of an awesome, older star known for his delightfully quirky, offbeat performances in big blockbusters. And since MGM refuses to just recast Robocop as Jeff Goldblum, the news that Michael Keaton is reportedly taking over Laurie villain role will do very nicely as a substitute. What more, unlike the rumors of Laurie or Clive Owen, this one is actually legit, as Jose Padilha has already confirmed the casting of the Beetlejuice and Batman star. Keaton is playing the evil, ludicrously wealthy CEO of OmniCorp, the role stanley mug originally played by the great Ronny Cox. Anyway, the addition of 100% more Mi stanley cup chael Keaton can only be considered a good sign. Also, MGM, seriously, it not too late to just make Jeff Goldblum the new Robocop.

https://youtube/watch v=_yieLYtLKzo Canon DSLRs are popular for video shooting, and you can pull beautiful footage from the low end Rebel series to the high end 1D series. But what is the difference in image quality in a price range from $1000-$7000 We ;ve had a Rebel T4i, 5D Mark III, and 1DX all in ou possession, so we decided to take a closer look. We took all three cameras and shot the s stanley cup ame scene with the same lens Canon 24-105 f/4 and settings f/9, 1/50, ISO 100 . We use a picture style with sharpness at 0, contrast at 0, and saturation at -2. We adjusted the focal length on the crop-sensor t4i to match that of the other two cameras. Obviously this isn ;t completely scientific, but we did our best. When viewed on the web at less than full-screen, the differences between the three are very faint. But when you blow er up a bit, the first thing that stands out is the terrible moire patterns in the T4i shot. Look at the false color in the bricks. Clearly the 5DMK3 and the 1DX are worlds better at resolving that type of detail. As for image sharpness, there difference is ever so slight, but the 1DX is a bit better than the 5DMK3, and the stanley cups uk 5DMK3 is a bit better than the T4i. You can see it best in the leaves of the trees. For the last step we added a bit of sharpness in post Sharpen effect in Premiere stanley deutschland Pro CS6, value of 55 to see how the footage responded. The difference immediately became clearer at 350% crop. The 5DMK3 lost a lot of detail and displa
